Design of an artificial restriction enzyme having simultaneous DNA cleavage activity

Characterization of Avian Pasteurella multocida Isolates by Protein Profiles and Restriction Enzyme Analysis of Chromosomal DNA

Genome of hepatitis B virus: restriction enzyme cleavage and structure of DNA extracted from Dane particles.

DNA extracted from Dane particles has been characterized by gel electrophoresis and restriction enzyme cleavage with endonuclease R-HaeIII (from Hemophilus aegyptius). Dane particle DNA is proposed to be a double-stranded circular DNA approximately 3600 nucleotides in length containing a single-stranded gap of 600-2100 nucleotides. The endogenous DNA polymerase (DNA nucleotidyl-transferase; deo...

design of an analog fuzzy logic controller chip

fuzzy logic has been developed over the past three decades into a widely applied techinque in classification and control engineering. today fuzzy logic control is one of the most important applications of fuzzy set theory and specially fuzzy logic. there are two general approachs for using of fuzzy control, software and hardware. integrated circuits as a solution for hardware realization are us...

Functional Coupling of Duplex Translocation to DNA Cleavage in a Type I Restriction Enzyme

Type I restriction-modification enzymes are multifunctional heteromeric complexes with DNA cleavage and ATP-dependent DNA translocation activities located on motor subunit HsdR. Functional coupling of DNA cleavage and translocation is a hallmark of the Type I restriction systems that is consistent with their proposed role in horizontal gene transfer. DNA cleavage occurs at nonspecific sites dis...

Binding and cleavage of DNA with the restriction enzyme EcoR1 using time-resolved second harmonic generation.

The binding of EcoR1 to a 90-bp DNA duplex attached to colloidal microparticles and the subsequent cleavage by the enzyme was observed in real time and label-free with time-resolved second harmonic (SH) spectroscopy. This method provides a unique way to investigate biomolecular interactions based on its sensitivity to changes in structure and electrical charge on formation of a complex and subs...
